New Poop Board & Roosting Bars

[member 469129]

After seven years, it was time to replace the poop board and roosting bars in our coop.

For folks with a smaller flock/coop, this configuration has done us very well. It was probably one of the more impactful changes we made to our hand-built coop early on. Makes for very easy cleanup and room for hens to move around on super cold and windy days when we have to keep them in the coop.

Does your poop board just sit on that frame so you can remove the whole thing easy??

It is secured with screws, but yeah, if I ever need to pull it out, it is a relatively quick thing to do. I’ve only ever had to pull it out once and that was to replace the old board.
